Current environmental challenges mean crop science is a vital subject for now, and our future. There is a growing demand for major food crops and the production of biofuels.

You'll develop your understanding of how crops grow and the management of crops within a commercial setting. You'll get to see current practice around the UK through external visits, guest lectures and the Agronomy Field Course. Understand how crops grow at all levels, from individual plant cells to whole farms. You'll see how growers use crop physiology understanding to inform their management practices and produce higher yields.  

• Study plant physiology, applying this to farms and the development of future crops
  
• Grow, manage and market your own crop in our enterprise module
  
• Visit commercial and research organisations
